I WOKE UP THIS GAY
As a gay rights activist, advote and lobbyist for over 40 years I've worked for var U. Telligence agenci, journalism, and as a profsnal gay rights lobbyist.
Throughout the long s we were fightg for a dream of a society where didn't matter if we were gay, straight, black, whe, Christian, Mlim, or Jew.
My generatn of gay men and today's transgenr and nonbary children paid and are still payg the price of other people's hatred, bigotry and most effective way to end the cycle of hateful rhetoric beg vlence agast margalized muni is to remd people what was like the last time Ameri went down this mt tell people what felt like when we were the foc, the victims of Ameri's hatred and and Ain Amerins unrstand the importance of makg people remember, never lettg them fet the atroci they endured. I believe the LGBTQ+ muny mt follow their noble "I WOKE UP THIS GAY" I rell my 60+ years of experienc as a gay man. Startg wh my abive and homophobic childhood, then g of age durg the LGBTQ+ rights movement and the AIDS epimic throughout North Ameri, Eastern and Wtern to a proment Mormon fay, at the age of 12 my Mormon Bishop mand my olr brother to beat the queer out of me, which ntued for the rt of my childhood.
